He will take on Amir Dadovic, his biggest challenge to date.
Hailing from the prestigious American Top Team Atlanta, Amir Dadovic trains with some of the toughest men in Mixed Martial Arts. His trainer Roan "Jucao" Carneiro is a five time UFC vet and his camp is full of rapidly accelerating talent. With a record of 2 and 1 in MMA Dadovic has worked extensively with Brazillian Jui Jitsu black belts and has become quite skilled on the ground. But it his striking ability, undefeated 8-0 in Muay Thai Kickboxing, that causes his opponents to second guess facing off with him in the cage.
